Sprinkle a pinch of dried oregano over the top of each pizza for added flavor.

Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges are slightly golden.

Remove from the oven and let cool for a minute or two. If desired, garnish with a fresh basil leaf on each pizza for a touch of freshness.
